Define rice.

Do you mean japanese cars in general?
Or do you mean dumb kids that put stickers and big exhaust tips on their Civics?

I have nothing againt japanese cars, and when they are modded for performance that's fine to. It's when you get dumb asses "modding" their civics so they *look* fast, that I hate.

So which way do you mean rice?

I thought rice by definition was putting stickers on to look fast even though it's got the balls the size of an ant.

Alienwho:

The term "Rice" originally came from Harley riders making fun of Japanese bikes as "burning rice for fuel".
It later expanded to include all Japanese vehicles.

More recently people use it in the way you describe. Which I do hate.

In this context, rice = kids &quot;modding&quot; their cars to look fast.

Well the term rice burner was also used for cars that had modded exhausts. Basically they had punched a few holes in the exhaust to make it louder and you here this popping sound when they accelerate. Kinda funny sound! hahaha it's even funnier when a white dude does it!

lol Mikal...well at least he has one of his wings in the right place for FWD car ;)

The question is, does he have any power under the hood?

The car looks like butt either way, but at least if he's got power it's not 100% bad...if he's got no juice that's just stupid.

Noriaki, naw, it's slower than home-schooled kids taking a evolution test. :D
